While things were tense in the Central Continent, the group of beings sent by one of the leaders of the City of a Thousand Races that Minos had passed had finally reached their goal.

After months of traveling, the group of sea beasts arrived in the Divine Continent and made their way to the area they had been appointed.

In that place, they investigated the whereabouts of the distant relatives of Henricus Longus and finally found this group hours ago!

After millions of years, since this man passed through the Spiritual World, his family still lingered!

Upon arriving at the headquarters of the current Longus family, that group of underwater beings soon got permission to enter this headquarters hidden among a great forest.

Being guided by half-breed Spiritual Sages, the envoys from the City of a Thousand Races couldn’t help but notice this relevant fact.

‘It seems the Longus family has mixed with land beast races…’ One of the sea beasts in this group looked at the hybrid bodies of those men guiding them.

‘Even powerful families would subject themselves to that? I highly doubt it. This was probably a desperate way out to maintain their own power.’ One of them thought, imagining that the Longus family had faced great problems and allowed part of their members to mix their bloodline with beings of other races.

Even as a beast, these newly arrived creatures in this forest did not see mixing races as a positive and could not help but see this place negatively.

None of them would say anything, but they all felt a particular disgust toward the descendants of that powerful man.

‘Tsk! Would senior Henricus Longus accept that?’

Amidst the prejudiced thoughts of some of those underwater beings, the man leading them stopped in front of a tree that had a trunk so thick that they could not see its limits.

“The elder who will receive you is inside that tree. Please come in.” He indicated where there was a door, surprising those beasts.

If one did not look very carefully, one would not be able to see that there was a door in that trunk!

Those beasts passed by and were soon inside what looked like a huge estate, where, by the quality of the decorative furniture, there could only be one of the most important members of this group.

“So you came from the City of a Thousand Races, huh?” A voice reached the ears of these beasts, who were watching the surroundings with interest.

Upon hearing that, they all looked up, sensing this voice had come from there.

They only saw the ceiling but knew the one who had spoken was waiting for them on another building floor.

They quickly walked up to the 5th floor of this property, arriving at a cultivation area where only one man was waiting for them, sitting on the ground in a lotus position.

“You are searching for my family because of the ancestor Giordano Longus?” This meditating man with closed eyes asked, surprising those beasts by quickly identifying what this was about.

The leader of those beasts observed this level 91 Demigod for a few moments, noting that he was a human with no racial mixtures, so he was silent for a few moments.

‘It seems that not everyone used race mixing…’ He thought before answering. “Yes, that is the reason for our visit.”

“Did someone appear in the City of the Thousand Races of the Ancestral Sea and manage to turn the key of the ancestor Henricus Longus?”

“Yes, someone did, but we don’t know who.” That beast said, wanting to ask that man what had happened to this family but knowing it was none of its business. “Anyway, we are here to warn you about it, just as we have promised in the past.

Someone turned the key left by senior Henricus Longus a few months ago. We don’t know what happened to him afterward, as it wasn’t our responsibility to identify him and bring him to you.”

That man opened his eyes, knowing this was not part of the old agreement between these beasts and his family.

But since he was aware of some important facts concerning the emergence of this person who could turn such a key, he couldn’t help but become more serious.

‘That person has the Spatial Kingdom and the best resources that the ancestor left behind to prepare us for the worst.’ He thought about it, feeling this was the alternative for his family to recover.

After millions of years since the end of Henricus Longus’ journey in the Spiritual World, the Longus family had not had another God and decayed over the last million years.

They still had Spiritual Demigods, but these experts were all low-level.

They had only been able to preserve their powers because they had run away from trouble twice in the last million years and still allowed part of the family to mix their genes with that of beast races.

This allowed them to protect some of their powers and live better in the Divine Continent. Still, it had also taken away some possibilities.

After so long, the Spatial Kingdom that Henricus Longus had left to them had been totally exhausted and no longer existed today.

Spatial Kingdoms needed to be taken care of, undergo repairs, and not have their full potential used up for long periods. There was a limit to the number of people that could live in such a place, and at least level 99 Demigods had to repair their structures every thousand years.

The Longus family had faced problems that had caused them to exceed the limits of their Spatial Kingdom, something that had killed that place more than 500,000 years ago.

As such, this family no longer had access to a cultivation sanctuary, nor did they have plantations of valuable medicines.

Hearing about the emergence of Henricus Longus’ final heir, that high-ranking elder of the Longus family couldn’t help but think this could be the salvation of his house!

‘That person must not be powerful… If we can get close to him and take his Spatial Kingdom, we can strengthen ourselves for the hard times approaching!’

He knew that if Minos had appeared, the threat to the Spiritual World prophesied by Henricus Longus was close to happening. But he felt that their chances would be much better if his people led the way instead of following their ancestor’s chosen one.

So even though he knew the last wishes of Henricus Longus, this elder intended to go against the orders of that God!

“Very well, thank you for the information, envoys from the City of a Thousand Races. When we can, we will send gifts to your leaders.” He said as he stood up, satisfied.

‘That person will probably seek us out only when he is stronger… Then we’d better start investigating him right away!’
